Heartland’s LTC Dry (Low Temperature Conductive Drying) is a state-of-the-art technology that sets new standards in sludge drying operations. Designed to address the challenges faced by wastewater treatment plants and industrial facilities, Heartland’s LTC Dry advanced thermodynamic process utilizes dry matter for economic and reliable conductive heat transfer. The dry matter to wet matter thermal conduction process efficiently and cost effectively transfers heat and drives evaporation at low temperature.
key features
The thermal efficiency of the LTC dryer is attributed to the dry matter conductive heating technology utilized in the primary dryer conveyor
Low Operating Temperatures: Low heat requirement due to dry matter conductive heating operated at low pressure
Enhanced Thermal Efficiency: Designed to utilize low temperature waste heat sources from electrical cogeneration systems
Low Emissions: Less odors & volatiles due to lower operating temperature
Simple Design: Less risk, maintenance, and costs with minimal rotating equipment
Improved Safety: Reduced operator exposure due to low operating temperatures
